Merry Christmas

We have so much to be thankful for this year and Christmas is no exception. Ethan's surgery went well, other than a little bit clingy (which I don't mind at all and the dr said is a possibility) he seems to be feeling fine. Even though my uncle is not with us this Christmas, we have Ethan and Lucas and our family welcomed a 3rd baby, Anniston, shortly after the boys-we have so much to rejoice over. Of course most importantly is the birth of our Savior. We went to church yesterday afternoon and after spending the evening at Nana's house, we came home and read Twas the Night Before Christmas last night. This morning before we started with the festivities we made sure to stop and remember what we are truly celebrating, we read Luke 2:8-14. I want to make sure to do this every year with the boys. Once the boys are old enough, I plan to have us sing Happy Birthday too.

Time to eat.....Merry Christmas!

I am glad that the surgery went fine and I hope he starts feeling better everyday. I remember how bad I felt when Aidan got circumcised as a baby so I cannot imagine how much harder it is on him and you!!!

I love the family tradition of reading the bible Christmas Ever!! That is awesome!!
